HT204053 how can I get my old info off of iCloud on to my new hard drive?

I had the hard drive for my iMac replaced and used a different log-in for iCloud (I didn't realize I did). I can see my old log-in picture in iCloud so I know my old info is there.  So, how can I merge the new and old together.  The old account has all my files and itunes?

You can not merge accounts and data of two accounts. If you want to have all of your data in one account then you will have to sign in and transfer your files manually to your harddrive so that you can safe them in a second step in your other account.

  • Changed apple ID...but ipod still has old one listed.  How can I get the old one off the ipod and input the new one?

    Okay, changed my apple ID in itunes.  When I try to download using the ipod directly to download a song it comes up with my old ID.  How can I have it default to my new ID.  I've already sync'd it and that didn't do it.  Need help please.
    Thanks

    - Did you actually change you Apple ID or did you just change the email address associated with the Apple ID.  The Apple ID (which is an email address) can me different that the email address associated with your account.  Also see:
    Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID
    - Did you try going to Settings>Store and signing out of the existing account and into the new one?

  • Our exchange server crashed and we lost all contact and calendar data.  We found an app to get the contacts off of people's phone to import but can't find the same for calendar.  How do I get my calendar info off my phone and in to new exchange server?

    You'd have to think through this, but it seems like if you are using Outlook, and the items vanished from the Outlook client as well as the server,that you could re-populate Outlook using iTunes.

    Right click on your device in the device list and choose "transfer purchses" to copy all music bought in iTunes to your new iTunes library.
    For all other media you'll have to use 3rd party software, examples are mentioned in this thread:

  • How can I get my music from my Itunes library after I replaced my hard drive?

    How can I get my music from my Itunes library (purchased and downloaded (CD)) after I replaced my hard drive?  Same account name.  My other computer see's old and new music.  Can purchace new songs.  They show up by themselves.  Can connect IPOD and old songs show up.  Seem's like they are defined as different accounts.

    They will only be where you put them.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • How can i install mac os x snow leopard on a macbook pro new hard drive

    I replaced the hard drive on my macbook pro and I'm having difficulty installing Mac Snow leopard on the new hard drive. I press "C" when rebooting with the disk inside and all I get is "you need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button until it turns off, then press the Power button again" any suggestion?

    Booting From An OS X Installer Disc
    1. Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
      2. Restart the computer.
      3. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
      4. Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple
          logo appears.
      5. Wait for installer to finish loading.
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc.  Insert the disc into the
             optical drive and restart the computer.  After the chime press and hold down the
             "C" key.  Release the key when you see a small spinning gear appear below the
             dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, set the format type to Mac
             OS Extended (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Partition button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.

  • I have a Power MAC 7200.  It's hardware is failing.  How can I get the old files off, so I can use them on a PC?  This system will save to a 3.5 inch floppy disk.

    My Power Mac 7200 is failing.  I would like to be able to use old reports on my PC.  How can I transfer them?
    The Mac will save files to a 3.5 inch floppy disk.

    You could write the files to a PC formatted floppy, you might be able to do File Sharing from it to the PC with an Ethernet cable.
    How bad off is the 7200? Can we maybe fix it?

  • I can't get to anything on my 2004 iMac. I put new hard drive in it and bought it without install disk. I can't get to anything because the keyboard or mouse doesn't work. It won't detect either

    I just replaced the hard drive on my iMac g5 and when I turn it on I cant get it to recognize the keyboard or mouse. So obviously I can't get to anything.

  • I changed email address, i updated in the manage apple id page, saved info but I cannot get into my iphone because the old email address keep showing up.  How can I get the old address off my iphone??

    help me please to remove my old email address on my iphone.  I already changed the address on the apple id page, but it hasn't tranferred to the phone and I cannot use my iphone.  My head is about to explode! 

    Welcome to the Apple community JB.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • HT204053 How can I get another email to verify my iCloud

    Can't setup my iCloud it won't send the email to verify

    You can ask your email service provider for another email address. They often allow several per account. Or you can sign up for a free gmail, yahoo or other email address. Or you might use your spouse's email address.

  • HT204053 How can I get the verification e-mail for iCloud to be resent?

    I have found the option to have the e-mail veification to be sent out, clicked for the request some 10 times and so far I haven't gotten the e-mail to verify it! No access to i Cloud.

    Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account.  Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.
    If this isn't working for you, contact iTunes store support for assistance: https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

  • How can I get itunes and the music placed on itunes on an external hard drive?

    It's an Iomega 1TB external hard drive.
    Is this possible? Or do I just have to keep installing itunes to a computer and just have my music saved there?

    Drag the iTunes library to an external drive, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down, and point it to that instance of the library.
    The iTunes application shouldn't be moved.

  • How can I get the old view of iCal back on my MacBook Pro and iPhone?

    How can I get the old view of iCal back on my MacBook Pro and iPhone?  The Mavrick version is crisp and clean but a colored dot is not the same as a highlighted word. I rely on my iCal on my MacBook Pro and iPhone 5 to help me track which of the 8 sites I visit for my job during the week - the color coding is (was key) to organizing and tracking meetings.  I hate the upgrade! 

    If purchased through the Mac App Store then it can be installed on up to five authorized CPUs. Otherwise, it's controlled by the license that came with the software.
    To install on another computer copy the downloaded installer application to the other computer.
